So, Lorne banned Milton Berle's episode from syndication


...supposedly because Berle's monologue was racist and sexist. This is why Berle is included in this movie. Well, I watched the episode and it's good. The funniest part of that episode was a Village People parody where Belushi, Akroyd, Bill Murray and Garret Morris sing "Bend over Chuck Berry, Disco is here to stay." THAT is probably what Lorne was trying to bury. I suspect Lorne was terrified the Rainbow Mafia would come for him.
